Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ammonium carboxylate type fluorine-containing compound, a surface modifier for improving the hydrophobic property, oilphobic property and lubricity of solid surfaces, and a magnetic recording medium using the same. Particularly, it relates to the improvement of the sliding durability of a magnetic recording medium having a carbon protective film as the outermost layer.
  • a is 3 to 12 and P is a polar group of various types including --SO 2 K, --SO 2 Na, --SO 2 F, --COOH, --SO 3 H, --OH and the like, as described in JP-A-61-42727, JP-A-58-29147 and JP-A-2-145550. All the perfluoroalkyl type compounds disclosed in the documents, however, have a short fluorocarbon chain with a carbon number (a) of 3 to 12.
  • the compounds are poor in effectiveness when used for modifying the lubricity of the friction surface of a solid material, although they are highly effective in preventing the contamination on the surface of a solid material and in imparting hydrophobic property and oilphobic property to the surface of a solid material.
  • the carbon number is as large as 30 to 120, and the modified surface has a good lubricity.
  • This type of modification methods include, for example,
  • magnetic recording media are being used in wide fields for information memory playback apparatuses of large capacity.
  • thin layer magnetic recording media with a high magnetic recording density are used.
  • magnetic disk apparatuses are required to have a particularly high recording density and a high-speed data uptake.
  • the gap between the head and the disk is narrowed and subsequently the probability of causing contact sliding is raised by the increase of memory capacity.
  • the trend makes severe the conditions under which thin layer magnetic recording media are used. Therefore, the improvement of sliding durability thereof is an indispensable factor.
  • lubricants are difficultly fixed to the surface of the protective film by adsorption or by chemical reaction.
  • the protective film is a film containing a chemically stable carbon allotrope, fixing lubricants to the surface is more difficult. Due to this, lubricants are apt to detach from the surface of the protective layer and hence a sufficient sliding durability cannot be obtained.
  • fluorine-containing lubricants cover the surface thereof in an undesirably low rate. This is because the surface of inorganic oxide film is hydrophilic whereas the fluorine-containing lubricants have hydrophobic property.
  • the known methods of surface modification that improve the sliding durability of a magnetic recording medium are classified into two types.
  • One uses a lubricant containing a compound having perfluoroalkyl of short fluorocarbon chain.
  • the other uses a lubricant containing a compound having perfluoropolyoxyalkyl or perfluoropolyoxyalkylene of long fluorocarbon chain.
  • the lubricity obtained by the use of a compound having perfluoroalkyl of short fluorocarbon chain is lower than the lubricity obtained by the use of a compound having a long fluorocarbon chain.
  • the compound having perfluoroalkyl of short fluorocarbon chain is used incorporated into the binder layers of magnetic tapes and coating-type magnetic disks.
  • the methods of surface modification of this type have been proposed in a large number.
  • a recent proposal JP-A-64-9961 teaches that surface treatment with a fluorine surface modifier containing a compound having as a functional group an ammonium perfluoroalkylcarboxylate of 3-12 carbon atoms of the formula,
  • lubricants containing a compound having a perfluoropolyoxyalkyl of long fluorocarbon chain or a perfluoropolyoxyalkylene of long fluorocarbon chain are utterly insoluble in non-fluorine-containing organic solvents. Therefore, disadvantageously, they cannot be used incorporated in a coating material. They are coated on a solid surface, and many patent proposals have been made for their use in magnetic recording media. Of the proposals, there is a method of surface modification wherein a compound having perfluoropolyoxyalkyl contained in a lubricant is chemically fixed to the surface of a magnetic disk (U.S. Pat. No. 4,120,995).
  • the proposed lubricant shows a good lubricating property due to their long fluorocarbon chain, the lubricity is lost once the compound is detached from the surface by collision between the head and the disk.
  • lubricants are desired to have a self-recovering property such that the lubricant detached from the sliding surface can return again to the sliding surface.
  • lubricants which have an appropriate adsorbability are required.
  • the surface is covered with a protective film formed by vapor deposition or sputtering, the lubricant can be poorly adsorbed on the surface.
  • the adsorbability of the lubricant is further reduced due to the chemical stability of the carbon allotropes contained in the film. Accordingly, conventionally in practical use, the surface of a protective film has been pretreated in order to enhance the adsorbability of the lubricant.
  • the protective film is an oxide film formed by vapor deposition or sputtering
  • the oxide film has a good adsorbability for lubricants.
  • the film also has a strong affinity to water. Therefore, undesirably, penetration of water into the interface between the lubricant and the inorganic oxide results in unsatisfiactory formation of a hydrophobic surface.
  • the rate of surface covering by the lubricant is poor.
  • the use of fluorine-containing solvents is inevitable due to the insolubility of lubricants containing a segment having perfluoropolyoxyalkyl of long fluorocarbon chain or perfluoropolyoxyalkylene of long fluorocarbon chain in organic solvents. It disadvantageously makes the surface modification process costly and makes difficult the waste liquid disposal.
  • the objects of the present invention are to provide a novel fluorine-containing compound that can overcome the disadvantages of the prior art discussed above; to provide a surface modifier containing the compound which can impart a high hydrophobic property and oilphobic property, and in particular a high lubricity to the surface of a solid; and to provide a magnetic recording medium having an improved sliding durability.
